Norway Trophy History | Still Waiting for a World Cup or UEFA European Championship Title

Norway's story so far

Norway are one of 160 national teams who have never won a FIFA World Cup or their confederation's continental championship — the same two-tier standard tracked for every team on this site. Best result: World Cup round of 16 in both 1994 and 1998, including a famous 2-1 group-stage win over Brazil in 1998.

What would it take?

To join the 51 nations already tracked here, Norway would need to win either the FIFA World Cup or the UEFA European Championship — the top continental honor in the Europe (UEFA) region. Both remain fully open: there's no ranking or seeding that rules a team out permanently, only qualification and results on the pitch.
